attending a wedding at 38 weeks pregnant

Just wondering what you guys think... I have a wedding to go to when I am 38 weeks. It's about 3 hours from my hospital. Do you all think its a good idea to go or should I miss it? It's a really good friends wedding so I'm having trouble deciding - I don't want to say I'm going, have them spend the money on my meal etc, and then not make it!

If it was me and one of my good friends, I would go. Or at least plan to go. You might not dance the night away, but likely you'll enjoy a lovely celebration and make it through the dinner before you're in need to get to bed. If you did have bub or were unable to go for another reason, and it's a good friend, I'm sure they'd understand. We had good friends miss our wedding as they had their bub on the day. I never once even thought about the money - was just so excited for them!

As they are good friends I would try and go. If you go into labour just before I am sure they will understand if you missed it. At worst case if you went into labour away from home there should be a hospital nearby

I accepted 2 functions late in pregnancy (36 and 39 weeks) and made it to both. It was probably silly wearing heels at 39 weeks when I'm 5"4 and put on 24kg but it was fun. I didn't have my bubba until 41 weeks so it was all good
